Metric of the Month
STOP HIDDEN ATTACK PATHS
Find and fix your toxic combinations
Seemingly acceptable risks can pile up on a single asset to become an elevated security risk. Spotlight hidden attack paths with automated compound risk metrics.
Challenge
Toxic combinations create elevated security risks
In the context of cybersecurity controls, a toxic combination occurs when multiple risks combine on the same asset to create a problem that needs to be fixed immediately.
Imagine you’ve got an employee who has elevated privileges, using a laptop with an exploitable vulnerability, and has recently failed a phishing test. These weaknesses together create a high-risk, toxic combination.
While these vulnerabilities are risky on their own, if they exist in combination – the risk amplifies. These risks can be easily exploited by threat actors and can be extremely difficult to identify and manage in your environment.
Solution
Identify and manage priority risks in near real-time
Automatically and continuously identify toxic combinations across multiple cybersecurity domains with compound risk metrics and Continuous Controls Monitoring.
By measuring control failures across multiple cyber control domains, you can quickly close control gaps that might otherwise be exploited.
We empower you and your team to prioritize remediation efforts in a proactive, threat-driven approach.
How compound risk metrics work
Move from manual, time-consuming, and complex reporting to an automated solution. Panaseer provides you with near real-time insights from across multiple cyber control domains.
This video shows you how to detect ‘toxic combinations’ of cybersecurity risks in the Panaseer platform. Compound risk metrics are just one of five different metric types available on the platform.
